    No full text
    Dr. Gehan recollects Dr. R. Lee Clark’s approach to funding, recruitment, and management and the attraction of MD Anderson/Houston to Dr. “Tom” Frei III, his wife Elizabeth “Liz” (nee Smith), as well as himself. Dr. Olson mentions from Kenneth Endicott (NCI Director) to Dr. R. Lee Clark (President, MD Anderson) lamenting the move of Dr’s Frei III and Freireich to MD Anderson. When Dr. Gehan started at MD Anderson in 1967, Dr. Lee D. Cady Jr. was the Head of the Department of Biomathematics. Dr. Gehan talks about the impact of the arrival of Dr’s Frei III and Freireich on MD Anderson Research. Dr. Gehan cites the cooperative group collaboration model of NCI/NIH Clinical Chairman Dr. C. Gordon Zubrod and biostatistician Marvin A. Schneiderman on the first randomized trials in acute leukemia and solid tumors. He recalls the members of the administration and the research team at MD Anderson before the arrival of Dr’s Frei III and Freireich: Dr. H. Grant Taylor, Chairman of the Southwest Oncology Group (Southwest Oncology Group), epidemiologist Eleanor Josephine McDonald (known for creating the National Cancer Registry) statistician Kenneth M. Griffith, Dr. Roy C. Heflebower, Joe E. Boyd and Dr. Stuart O. Zimmerman, Chairman of the Biomathematics Department. He also mentions other MD Anderson administrators and researchers: Terry L. Smith, Dr. Peter F. Thall, Dr. J. Jack Lee, President Dr. Charles A. LeMaistre, Dr. Frederick F. Becker and President Dr. John Mendelsohn. Finally, he talks about the Department of Biostatistics, how it differs from Biomathematics, and the effort to strengthen medical oncology at MD Anderson.https://openworks.mdanderson.org/mchv_interviewchapters/1313/thumbnail.jp

    Chapter 03: Broad Experience and an Interest in Immunology Creates a Path to MD Anderson

    No full text
    In this Chapter, Dr. Satterfield briefly sketches his educational path and notes that when he assumed the position of Veterinarian at the Boston Zoo, he was one of the few fully employed zoo vets at the time. He also talks about his family background, noting that he elected to go into veterinary medicine because of his mother’s love of animals and her support for his habit of bringing home strays. He then lists his unique professional experiences. During his postgraduate training through the School of Veterinary Medicine at Harvard, for example, he worked with basic scientists who were looking at the transmission of disease. He acquired wide clinical experience working on animals as varied as fish, elephants, and primates. All this experience kindled his interest in basic biology and immunology. This will put him in a unique position to be recruited for MD Anderson’s Keeling Center. Dr. Satterfield describes how he was offered the opportunity to come to MD Anderson in 1983 to study the very poorly understood disease, AIDS, and try to develop treatments based on the model of hepatitis B. He worked with chimpanzees and tells the story of how the NIH was looking for a place to transfer its community of primates. R. Lee Clark found a donor to give one million dollars to bring the chimpanzees to MD Anderson, and he worked with Dr. Michale Keeling and Dr. Kenneth Riddle to create the chimpanzee program. He concludes this section with a brief discussion of research he conducted with the Department of Defense: this led to the discovery of a monoclonal antibody that defends against smallpox and that is now part of the anti-bioterrorism “National Stockpile.”https://openworks.mdanderson.org/mchv_interviewchapters/2502/thumbnail.jp

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
